Points Earned Running Head: TITLE OF THE PAPER TITLE NAME SCHOOL CLASS DATE Title of the Paper The first paragraph is always an introduction. You will describe what the practice problem is and why this is a problem. One of the graded sections is “Nursing Practice Problem and PICOT Question”. This can be done in the introduction. The final sentence of your introduction will be your purpose statement. “The purpose of this paper will be to review two quantitative and two qualitative research articles and the significance to the practice problem. Background You will review all four of the previous articles. The background information is about the research articles and not the practice problem and should include the problem, significance to nursing, purpose, objective and research questions. You can combine information if two papers have the same general purpose but you need to state that. You need to identify the articles like this: The first article, How to Rob a Bank, by H Hoff, discussed….. Don’t try to be too creative in your work. You need to state the items that need to be address. “The purpose of this paper was…., the significance to nursing was… Method This is the same information as the previous assignments. What I am looking for is to see who the research was developed. Who participated, how many, what were the inclusion, exclusion criteria, etc. The rubric asks for the conceptual/theoretical framework of the research. If you can find that, include it in the final paper, if not, then don’t stress. It can be hard to find and sometimes it is not included in the publications. Results The results should be similar to what you submitted for the last two assignments. For qualitative studies, I want to see the themes from the interviews or peer groups and for quantitative studies, I want to see numbers. What % of differences were there, etc. PICOT and article Relationship You need to describe the relationship between the PICOT question the research articles and the nursing practice problem you identified. You are simply tying things together at this point. You should have references and support your position in this sections. Proposed Evidence Based Practice Change This is an important section. You want to describe a potential practice change that YOU could implement in your clinical area based upon the research you have done. This can be an actual change you plan to make or simply a discussion of a change, but you need to describe a change that can take place. Ethical Considerations Same as the other papers. You will briefly describe the ethical considerations that were taken to protect the participant’s privacy. Conclusion The conclusion is just a review of what you discussed in the paper. You can address the practice problem and how the evidence supports the practice change that you will be implementing. Important things to remember 1 There is a significant % of this paper that looks at if you made changes based upon the feedback that I have given you. So go back and look at my comments. 2 Formatting matters. Be sure to use headings in the paper. 3 References – You MUST include citations when you are describing the studies. 4 It is OK to go over the word count. NRS433V Week 5 Research Critiques and PICOT Statement Final Draft

I would rather you go over the count and include all of the information than stay under the count and not include the information. 5 If the rubric addresses a topic, you should include this as a section of your paper. As always, please ask me questions if you are not sure of something. Clinical Issues Summary Nurses are the most affected by burn out and job dissatisfaction in the profession. This can be attributed to the nature of their work and the overall demands of the profession. Ultimately, frustration from the patients can elevate the bedside nurse’s stress levels leading to burnout. Burn out, and job dissatisfaction is a course for concern, especially in busy health care in the system (Aiken et al., 2002). The issues bring about individual problems that yield widespread problems in the whole organization. For instance, a nurse may develop “neuroendocrine” related responses and, ultimately physiological outcomes that can result in illness. Within the organization, job dissatisfaction and increased burnout can result in the poor turn out and elevated absenteeism impacting health care delivery within the organization. Nurses who deal with patients daily are liable to workplace stress that yields elevated levels of burnout and subsequent job dissatisfaction (Aiken et al., 2002). The development of creative team building activities can help address the issue among nurses in various hospital settings while enhancing their overall job satisfaction. This is because such activities are meant to enhance nurse’s morale, increased communication, and trust that is very crucial in a clinical setting (Clark, 2009). Such activities enhance trust as well as improved morals in a clinic. The move creates a collaborative environment between colleagues as well as cooperation while integrating the team’s efforts in problemsolving. The activity can be organized individually, or it can integrate the whole organization. However, the involvement of the organization may limit the activities due to the need for money, but individual nursing cooperation can cut any cost required. They can set a particular day of how they can be a meeting taking into account their particular (Clark, 2009). Nice summary 2 Question: Do creative team building activities among the nurses relieve job dissatisfaction and minimize burn out levels in comparison to the nurses who do not undergo such activities?
